Hey everybody — Scott Kelby here. I’m thrilled to be able to pick up where Matt left off with the site and I wanted to start by thanking all the great folks here who took the “Lightrooom Killer Tips” survey I posted a few days ago. I cannot tell you how helpful and insightful your answers have been, and your personal written comments have been absolutely invaluable. I...

Happy fake-manufactured-online-shopping day everyone! Just wanted to let you know that I’ve got a brand new Lightroom training app out. It’s called “Lightroom Creative Presets”. Of course I always provide free presets here on the site. But I get a lot of questions about creating presets so I created an app that goes through my thought process for a bunch of different styles of presets. The app is broken up into...

One of my favorite plug-ins, Topaz Adjust, for Photoshop and Lightroom was just updated. It’s got a bunch of new presets (I’m a preset fan if you haven’t noticed ), a Lightroom-like brush to dodge, burn and remove adjustments from certain parts of the photo, and the ability to stack presets which is HUGE for me.

So I called in my attack helicopter, hid in a corner on the map I was playing and called Scott. On the other end of the line was Scott asking if I was ready for a big congratulations (Which I’m always ready for by the way) Anyway, it...

This week I’m starting a 5 city tour of the Lightroom 3 Live seminar from Kelby Training. First I head to Phoenix, then on to Indianapolis, Tampa, Arlington and finally Philadelphia. This is an absolute fantastic chance to come out and learn Lightroom from the ground up. I even recorded a quick video about the day that you can watch below. But… I wanted to give you a chance to win a free ticket to the seminar. So...

Bill Fortney and I are co-teaching a “Fall Color” landscape workshop in the northeast from Oct 9-15. It was sold out but I just heard from him that about 3-4 spots opened up from some people that couldn’t make it. We’ll be shooting in Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, New Hampshire and Vermont over the course of the week. Plus, we’ll have lots of classroom time to cover Lightroom, Photoshop and photo...
